you are wrong about plant selection!!!!!!!!!!! thousands for the south....succulents in the front, hostas, elephant ears, native grasses, hydrangeas, camellias, azaleas, rhododendrums, bleeding hearts, some day lillies....and the list goes on ...look up your USDA zone number on google and then shade plants for your zone....plant from short in front to tall in back....I suggest pinterest.com-southern shade gardens for ideas...be careful with oleander and rhododendrums---they are deadly if consumed or if they are burned--the smoke is deadly.

Hostas spread across the bed, some sort of orange Bloom Lillies across the back of the bed. I just filled in with impatients, Begonias and Coleus. I'm not sure how it will look yet as it is just coming in, but it feels so random.
